I'm feeling really very vulnerable, and unsafe and stuff right now. But, today, im going on a trip with the school. 12-8pm. So, i'll need to put on a happy face, and all that. Please could i have some coping strategies, or even just some "good luck", "i'll be thinking of you"
sorry if im asking too much

I'm new here, but if you don't mind, I'll add my sincere "good luck" and "I'll be thinking of you" to all that I know you will receive here. Maybe the trip will help keep your mind on something else? Sometimes a bit of diversion helps me a little...my best to you.

well, this may sound silly and immature but sometimes i'll be mysterious and keep myself enthrolled with my thoughts enough to just about keep it together. this may not help but maybe it will give you ideas of your own. i hope it goes well.

It probably isn't good, but I numb my emotions and then act happy so it doesn't hurt as much

Like you said, put on a happy face. Sometimes if you fake it and pretend to feel good for a while you start to feel the slightest bit better. In addition, I will be thinking of you and sending you positive thoughts from here. Hang in there and do your best to make it a great day!
